Ping IP doesn't work

[MantasJ]

Hello,

I am using this script: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthread.php?tid=1035 to ping an IP adress of a laptop in the same network as the LM is. It somewhy does not work, I transformed script into this:

Code:

function socketping(ip, port, timeout)
  port = port or 80
  local sock = require('socket').tcp()
  sock:settimeout(timeout or 20)
  local res, err = sock:connect(ip, port)
  log(res)
  log(err)
  sock:close()
 
  return res, err
end


ip = '192.168.100.149'

if socketping(ip) then
  log('CONNECTED')
  grp.write('0/0/9', true)
else
  log('DISCONECTED')
end

But it always logs disconected, no matter what I try. If I ping the IP from cmd, it pings fine. Where could be the problem?

Thank You.
